    Great debut for actress and director

    Almost feels like a straight up horror movie, I don't know why I felt such dread for Kayla while watching, besides it I'm sure relating to my own experiences in high school and social interactions in general. The bonfire chat Kayla has with her dad is one of the best scenes of the year; Bo Burnham wrote it so well and Elsie Fisher and Josh Hamilton play it perfectly. Although pretty different in particulars, it reminds me as being emotionally similar to the conversation with the dad at the end in Call Me By Your Name. Also credit to Burnham for not playing the dad role himself.

    One of the best 3 or 4 films of 2018

    I'm not sure you could watch Eighth Grade and not find yourself attached to a moment or character that reminds you of your own jr high days. A sometimes tough, always realistic portrayal of a strange time we all go through, it also is a great depiction of how social media can effect things. Bluray looks and sounds great, though it's just a little indie film so it's not like it's gonna be a demo disc.

    Great coming of age flick

    Before I watched this I knew I was in for a great film. The entire start and finish of this movie is great. Dealing with that weird age everyone goes through in life and some things that occur earlier on in our younger years. Definitely a must see for those dad's who have daughters like myself. Makes me wish my kids didn't have to grow up. I give at a 9/10 overall.

    Like if John Hughes made a film for our generation

    This movie hits right in the feels especially if you grew up in the 2000s. Eighth Grade is a relatively new film but can already stand toe-to-toe with some of the best coming-of-age stories ever made. It’s a sweet and touching movie that, despite its rating, people both young and old should watch.

    A fantastic breakout film

    A fantastic directorial debut from Bo Burnham and a stellar lead performance from Elsie Fisher. Definitely a film so many people can relate to if they had a rough time in school. Genuine and hilarious, while also brutally honest, one of 2018's best movies.

Who's Harry Crumb? (Retro VHS Packaging)   - BLU-RAY
4.7(32)

Hilarious John Candy, that's who!

Annie Potts, Shawnee Smith, Tim Thomerson, and Barry Corbin co-star in this uproarious comedy caper. 89 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Includes retro VHS packaging.

Making The Grade   - BLU-RAY

From high school rebel in The Breakfast Club to prep school impersonator, Judd Nelson's (Blue City) irreverent brand of humor is prominently on display in Making The Grade. Rich, preppy Palmer Woodrow (Dana Olsen, The Burbs) would much rather be skiing in Europe than attending Hoover Academy prep school, which provides Palmer with his last shot at graduating. As it turns out Palmer is more motivated than anyone imagines. Enter Eddie Keaton (Nelson), a low-rent con artist in need of cash and on the run from a loanshark (Andrew Dice Clay, Blue Jasmine). With $10,000 and a Porsche courtesy of Palmer, Eddie assumes his identity. Hoover Academy will never be the same. Making The Grade, directed by Dorian Walker (Teen Witch) from a screenplay by Gene Quintano based on a story by Quintano and Charles Gale, co-stars Jonna Lee (Chained Heat), Gordon Jump (House Calls) and Ronald Lacey (Raiders of the Lost Ark).
